For my 56th birthday, my daughter, Beth bought me two beautifully carved wooden butterflies. I hung them in prominent （显眼的） places on my walls so that I could see them often during the day. Each time they gave me a wonderful reminder of love.

My love of butterflies goes back to many years ago. After a long battle against cancer, my mom passed away when I was only 25 years old. Beth was only a baby at the time and never got to have any memories of her grandma. I tried to make up for it by telling her stories of my mom, but each time I did, I could see that there was a little sadness in Beth's eyes. One day when she was only seven or so, we were outside at the playground. Beth suddenly said without her grandma around, how much she missed her. Well, sometimes I said the right thing and this time I told her how much her grandma loved her, I said she was watching over her from distant places and that maybe she was even taking a ride on the back of a butterfly to come down and get a closer look. At that very moment, a butterfly appeared. It flew around Beth's face and then moved away. We both laughed with our hearts full of love and joy.

Since that moment, all of those years both Beth and I have seemed to attract butterflies like flowers. Whenever we are outside, they seem to fly down, circle around us, take a good look, and then fly away. And each time we are reminded of my mom's love watching over us. The only time this doesn't happen is during the coldest months of the year when there are no insects of any kind. But now during those times I can take a look at the two, beautiful, wooden butterflies my daughter bought me and still be reminded of that love.

24.What do the wooden butterflies mean to the author?

C.Love.

D.Energy.

25. Why did the author often tell Beth the story of her grandma?

A. It could have Beth recover from sadness.

B. It stressed the significance of butterflies.

C.It told Beth about her mother's childhood.

D. It could make Beth know more about her grandma.

A.To give suggestions.

C.To give comfort.

B.To make a warning.

You may have been told to “look on the good side” or to “see the cup as half full”. It is likely that the people making these comments are positive thinkers. Researchers are finding more and more evidence that optimism and positive thinking have many benefits.

When faced with stressful situations, positive thinkers are more effective than pessimists （悲观主义者）.Rather than dwelling on their frustrations or things that they cannot change， they will design a plan of action and ask others for help and advice.

In recent years, researchers have found that your mind can have a powerful impact on your body. Immunity（免疫力）is one area where your thoughts and attitudes can have a particularly  powerful influence. In one study, researchers found that motivation in brain areas associated with negative emotions led to a weakened immune response to a flu vaccine. Researchers Segerstrom and Sephton found that people who were optimistic about a specific and important part of their lives, such as how well they were doing in school, showed a stronger immune response than those who had a more negative view of the situation.

Positive thinking can not only affect your ability to cope with stress and your immunity, but also affect your overall happiness, including reducing the risk of death due to cardiovascular（心血管的） problems， less depression and an increased lifespan.

Although researchers don't entirely understand why positive thinking is beneficial to health, some people believe that positive people may lead to healthier lifestyles. By coping better with stress and avoiding unhealthy behaviors, they are able to improve their health and happiness.

It may not be surprising to learn that positive thinking can play an important role in the ability to adapt. When dealing with a challenge, optimists usually think about what they can do to solve the problem. Instead of giving up hope, they make use of their resources and are willing to ask others for help.

28. What does the underlined part “dwelling on” in paragraph 2 mean?

A.Calling on.

C.Deciding on.

B.Living on.

D.Focusing on.

29. What do researchers find about a positive mind?

A.It is a complex system.

B. It is key to people's emotions.

C.It can make immunity strengthened.

D. It leads to a weaker immune response.

30. Why can positive people lead a healthier life?

A.They seldom have stress.

B.They have a balanced diet.

C.They deal with stress better.

D. They can solve problems on their own.

31. What is a suitable title for the text?

A. Strengths of positive thinking

C.Ways to form positive thinking

B.Positive and negative thinking

D.Stress and positive thinking

D

Tiny sensors inspired by dandelion（蒲公英） seeds could be spread to the winds to help track of climate change and global warming.

As the climate crisis continues to strengthen, tracking changes in temperature and other environmental signals across a wide area is useful. But doing effectively requires distributing sensors throughout the environment, which can be time-consuming.

“We wondered whether it's possible to build a system that can spread sensors in the wind, rather than having a person go out and place sensors alone, which can be dangerous in hard-to-reach places,” says Vikram Iyer at the University of Washington in Seattle.

Iyer and his colleagues used a laser-powered tool to make devices. Each one weighs 30 milligrams with a diameter of 28 millimeters, and has a number of small holes through which air can float in the air like dandelion seeds.

The devices carry tiny sensors-essentially a microcomputer powered by small solar panels-that can send back signals to the researchers, who developed different types that can measure temperature， pressure， light and so on. A small capacitor（电容器）can store energy overnight or in cloudy conditions.

In all, the team tested 75 different designs before finding the right mix of variables. The final design can move through the air at 0. 87 metres per second, travelling up to 100 metres in

a mild wind when released from a drone （无人机）.Real-world tests showed that the sensors

can transfer data up to 60 metres.

“The production of the 'seeds' is especially interesting, so is the design of the electronic devices,” says Jonathan Aitken at the University of Sheffield,  UK. “Both seem to be very strong to the natural environment.”

Aitken is also impressed by the range of the sensors' communication abilities. “Plus the cheapness of the device, it means that it can be placed in large numbers, and the communication range makes this an excellent choice, especially within agriculture or disaster area monitoring," he says.

32. What can we learn about the sensors like dandelion seeds?

A. They are quite expensive to make.

B.They are efficient in space and time.

C. They can be carried by dandelion seeds.

D.They can change the temperature.

33.What provides the energy for microcomputer on the sensors?

A.The sun.

C.A smalI capacitor.

B.Strong wind.

D.A drone.

34.What can be inferred from paragraph 6?

A.The seed-like sensors can rise up from the ground without any help.

B.The seed-like sensors can only travel in a mild wind.

C.The scientists have tried many other designs before the seed-like sensors.

D.The seed-like sensors travel much slower than its common competitors.

35.What does Aitken think of the sensors?

A.Costly.

B.Risky.

C.Complicated.

D.Promising.
